Fuel Light

When my fuel light comes on, like today, the range indicated only 3 kms left. Sometimes it's more.

When the light comes on approximately how many litres left in the tank?

Where were you getting the fuel range from? Is it included on the '12 models?

From my foggy memory it's around 8L left according to my scan gauge E, but I don't usually let it get down low enough to start blinking.

A proper gas gauge. Did they add a temp gauge too?

I unfortunately ran mine down till it showed 0 kms range a couple of weeks ago, but it only took 35 litres to fill the tank again (full tank is 42 litres IIRC).
